Imagine a first birthday party designed to look like it was taking place at a cozy, picture-perfect farm. Themed events for children are always popular and many children love farms and country themes. These types of party designs make it possible to have something that is fun, bright and exciting for the young guests, but also visually appealing for the adults in attendance as well. With red and white gingham tablecloths and napkins, mason jar drink cups and apple barrel gift boxes for the guests, this is a theme that is incredibly versatile. This type of look would work easily for a little boy or girl or could even be used for an adult party with a few additional tweaks.

This is the type of creativity that clients can expect from 23 Layers, an event planning company in NYC. Rather than a traditional party for children with paper and plastic decor and greasy pizza, everyone will enjoy quality decorations and unique themes. Of course, their services are not only reserved for children, or even just for birthday parties. These professional event planners are able to create a magical and memorable experience for any event. Their designers will work to develop a unique idea for corporate events, business meetings and private gatherings. It can be something small and intimate or a gala affair that is the event of the season. Not only with their design be innovative, modern and amazing, but the food and entertainment will be just as impressive.

Event planners are not all the same and not all will have the same eye for details and attention to current trends. For the best experience, choose the one with the best connections, the most exciting venues and a design team that can turn wishes into reality. With 23 Layers, each client will have an event that they will not be able to stop bragging about.

One thing that you can say about Marc Sparks is that he is always keeping himself busy and now he has developed yet another interest. The concept of the “Spark Tank” is to encourage companies with an innovative social concept to have their executives present their entrepreneurial plan to create success in society. Representatives of not for profit organizations around his area of Texas were encouraged to submit plans and explain what they would do with $5,000 to significantly impact the lives of people in a positive way.

Round one of the Spark Tank has happened and through careful deliberation, three finalists were chosen. They were The House of Eli, a transitional living facility, Metro Relief, a mobile soup kitchen, and Dogs Matter, providing foster care for pets of addicts.

Each of the three was brought together to give their presentations to the Spark Tank Panel on April 27th. Each of the presentations was creative and unique but in the end, there could only be one winner and it was Dogs Matter. This was done after a long and detailed deliberation, and it was clear that there are a lot of great efforts to help others out there. Read more: @msparks5010

That, of course, is not the end of the Spark Tank, round two is being geared up as we speak. The deadline to get submissions into the committee is July 15th. The same process will be followed there as the top three candidates for enhancing social change will be chosen and invited in to give their presentation in person.

Summer will arrive sooner than you think. Now is a good time to start practicing to make sure your summer makeup stays in place. Some of the world’s top makeup artists recommend these tips.

Always Use Primer
Apply primer after your moisturizer and before you add your foundation. Primer is a base for your foundation and it helps your makeup last longer. It is also a good way to help minimize pores, lock in moistures, smooth skin textures and prepare your skin for flawless makeup application. Try to pick up a primer with sunscreen if your moisturizer does not contain SPF.

Waterproof Concealer
It is hard to hide blemishes when your concealer melts away. Try using waterproof cream formula concealer that will stay on your face when you are running around in hot weather.

Lips that Stay in Place
To make sure your lips stay put try a silicone-based lip color. This lip formula does not seep into your lip creases. Unlike most lip colors, a silicone-based lip formula last longer and does not wear off within a couple of hours. Lip formulas that last longer usually helps keep your lips hydrated as you pucker throughout the day.

Use a Creamy Eyeshadow
Try applying a creamy eyeshadow over your primer, rather than a powdered eyeshadow. The good thing is waterproof creamy eyeshadows will not cake or display creases in sweltering weather. By using creamy eyeshadows, it provides a longer lasting vivacious look for your eyes and gives a smudge-free appearance.

George Soros finds the 2016 election as surreal as many of his fellow Americans. The Republican front-runner holds positions such as forcing Mexico to pay for a wall, placing a ban on Muslim immigration, and forcing Muslims to wear special IDs. Political commentators across the country cannot resist engaging in Godwin’s law and comparing reality TV star Donald Trump to a former German dictator. Soros, who has donated several million dollars to the campaign of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton decided to take the election more seriously when Trump won the Indiana primaries.

Despite the fear over Trump winning the presidential election, likely Democratic voters do not seem to have the enthusiasm that Republicans supporting Trump have. None of the Democratic presidential debate gained the audience that the Republican debates had, and a smaller percentage of likely voters head to the polls in the primaries. Although Hillary Clinton is the presumptive nominee, Sanders could still win the popular vote as the California primary has yet to be held.

Soros chose not to donate to any Democratic campaign in 2008 or 2012 because he failed to influence the 2004 election of George W. Bush. Many Democratic candidates attempted to gain his support unsuccessfully during these campaign years. Markedly different circumstances mark 2012, however. China and Europe may be on the brink of another economic collapse that could send the world back into the Great Recession. The Great Recession occurred after the housing market collapsed, and it was eased when the federal government forced the banks to take millions of dollars. The phrase “too big to fail” entered the American lexicon at this time.

LimeCrime is one of the most innovative cosmetics brands in the world and has looked for new and innovative ways of developing the brand for the future; under the leadership of founder and CEO Doe Deere the company has looked to develop an ever increasing digital presence across blogs and social media platforms.

Doe Deere has developed her own persona that sees her referred to as the Queen of the Unicorns, a title that refers to her personal image based on myth and fairytale. Alongside the advertising materials LimeCrime has developed Online, the company also releases video of the founder giving tutorials on the creation of her cosmetics and tutorials on their use.

For those living and working within the company the LimeCrime brand has become more than just a range of cosmetics, but is also seen as an Online community where individual choices are made and exhibited to fellow makeup users. Much of the success of the Instagram account of the company can be put down to the inclusion of fan posts submitted under #limecrime. The hashtag has come into regular use across Instagram and Twitter as this company producing a range of cruelty free products has grown beyond its initial cult following; Doe Deere has always looked to develop new ideas for the company and continues to do so as the social media presence of LimeCrime continues to grow.

Many are working in Venezuela by candlelight these days, according to a recent Corporation Wiki report. The country is suffering from an extreme power shortage. Lighting candles is the only option for many since the government has mandated the cutting off of power. The rationing of electricity is done for one single reason: there is only so much electricity left. Once wattage is used, it is not being replaced.
In hindsight, Venezuela was overly reliant on hydroelectric power. A massive, sustained drought has brought the ability to generate electricity to a standstill. The nation now falls back over 130 years into the past (at times) when power is deliberately cut off.

To say this has created economic and political instability in the country would be a dramatic understatement. Things are only going to get worse until more power is produced. The “rolling cuts” of power only last for four hours. Once they pass, power returns. If additional electricity is not generated, the duration of those power outages is going to increase. Political and economic instability is likely to increase as well.

Even if the massive drought were to end, the memories of the current disastrous situation is not likely to fade from the minds of people like Norka Luque who’s experiencing it. In time, the drought and the power outages will end but Venezuela is not likely to be the same, politically, ever again.
